We loved the proximity to the beach. We were right by the pool but still found the property to be very quiet at night. The bathroom was a little musty smelling but overall a very convenient place to stay.

The Hotel itself could use some updating for sure. But if you are ok with clean but old then this is your place. The location, the views and the restaurant attached to the hotel are excellent!!

This property is right on the beach. The view was beautiful. The hotel staff was very helpful. When we checked in we were told that they had beach chairs and stuff for the beach and just to call down first. However when we did call down for chairs they said they did not do that and they do not carry beach items for guest to use.
